Wharton School of University of Pennsylvania had the Bollywood star, Abhishek Bachchan, as its guest lecturer recently. Before the fragrance could die, there has been an entry of yet another Bollywood ambassador on the corridors of the school.
It was Abhay Deol.
Last week, Abhay Deol visited this Business School and addressed the packed audience.
“Dev D” fetched Abhay a special place and he is now seen as face of changing Bollywood and this was evident from the questions of the audience.
Abhay, with most of his time spent in US, has grown in stature and has earned the respect of a knowledgeable film personality.
He claims to have gone to the school without any firm agenda in mind and handled the session as it progressed. The discussions on the impact of Multiplexes and single screens, Bollywood’s international image, filmgoer’s preferences were a few topics among the many discussed.
Well! as expected the names of Sonam and the Miss Great Britan, Preeti had also surfaced and Abhay was very tactical in brushing aside the rumors giving a commendable credit to the Indian media for their innovative thinking.
